- “And because lawlessness will be increased, the love [ἀγάπη] of many will grow cold.”
- Άγάπη is a self-sacrificing love that seeks the good of another. This is, in particular, the sort of love one must have for one’s own blood (family, tribe, nation).
- “But if anyone does not provide for his relatives [blood], and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”
The rejection of racial duties is precisely the sort of ‘love growing cold’ of which Christ warns and is not only a sign of the end of all things, but also affirmative proof that those without such love are apostate — ‘worse than unbelievers’.
Those who reject the reality of race and the attendant duties thereto cannot be Christians. Thus says the Lord.
